Chapter 598 Yellow Dragon True Monarch
"Tick-tock!"
"Tick-tock!"
Golden Egg smacked its lips, stopping the saliva dripping from its mouth, its three pairs of dragon eyes fixed on the heart of the Golden Dragon.
As soon as the bloodline in the Golden Dragon's body was drained, its lifespan was almost over and it was about to perish, but the Golden Egg could still clearly sense an incredible and powerful life force gathering.
"Want it?" Chen Beiwu chuckled.
Golden Egg nodded repeatedly, its eyes filled with eager anticipation.
The opportunity is right in front of us. If we capture this Golden Dragon, its cultivation will skyrocket, allowing it to surpass Xue Le and become a perfect demon king on par with Aji.
"You wicked thief!"
Lan Xinyi stood to the side, her eyes filled with barely concealed anger.
She sensed a trace of the Azure Ridge Serpent's aura on the Golden Dragon Demon King.
Barring unforeseen circumstances, the Jade Ridge King Serpent, which the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect had painstakingly cultivated for two thousand years, has already perished and become food for the golden dragon.
"boom!
""
At the same time, Qian Jinqiu slightly raised its head and also noticed the presence of Chen Beiwu and the other person. An invisible ripple immediately spread rapidly from the center of the dragon's body, exuding an incomparably domineering dragon might.
The dragon is dying, but its remaining power has not diminished and may even be more dangerous!
But Chen Beiwu showed no intention of making a move, his gaze fixed on the empty space to his left.
"You're hiding your true intentions; do you really think I can't see you?"
Before Chen Beiwu finished speaking, seven figures suddenly sprang up from the gap in the void, each unleashing a killing move.
"Azure Dragon's Claw Tear of the Sky!"
Zhai Cang, the sect leader of Cangmo Sect, cleaved his five fingers like hooks, and his Heavenly Qi condensed into the shape of a blue dragon, pressing down hard on Chen Beiwu's head.
Before the dragon's claws even arrived, the overwhelming claw shadows completely sealed off the space, attempting to cut off Chen Beiwu's path to survival.
"Desert Killing Sound!"
The deputy sect leader of Cangmo held a pipa, a mysterious treasure, and plucked the strings with his right hand, playing a sonic attack that caused the void around Chen Beiwu to collapse inch by inch, and the sound of a sandstorm that shook the heavens and the earth resounded in his spiritual sea.
"Star-Shattering Nails!"
"Yishan Hammer!"
The two Nascent Soul Peak True Monarchs joined forces and unleashed their lethal magic treasures in coordination.
One of the mystical treasures transformed into streams of light, one becoming ten, ten becoming a hundred, a hundred becoming a thousand, forming countless golden rays that could shatter stars and break magic.
The other quickly summoned the Heavenly Gang Dharma Image, using its power to lift the Yishan Hammer and smash it down on Chen Beiwu's head in a simple and unadorned manner.
"Soul-Stealing Seal!"
"Airlock!"
"Snowstorm Thorn!"
In the blink of an eye, a combined attack from a Nascent Soul Perfection cultivator, two Nascent Soul Peak cultivators, and five Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivators rained down from all directions.
"roar!"
With a roar, Qian Jinqiu opened its mouth and aimed at Chen Beiwu, spewing out a sky full of golden sand, its power far surpassing that of Zhai Cang and the others.
This is precisely the profound innate ability possessed by Qian Jinqiu: [Hidden Meridian Sand Breath].
This profound power contains the hidden energy of dissipating qi, which can transform into countless grains of sand to easily melt the true barrier of a Nascent Soul cultivator at the peak of their cultivation, and silently merge into the cultivator's flesh and blood dantian, making it difficult to be detected by divine sense.
Faced with the sudden attack of the eight Nascent Soul True Monarchs and the breath of the Hidden Golden Dragon, Chen Beiwu remained unmoved, his expression calm throughout, and even had time to glance at Lan Xinyi.
"Sect Leader Chen, I'm here to help you!"
Lan Xinyi lightly touched a flower with the fingertips of her left hand, then flipped her right palm to take out a miniature jade cauldron and circulated her magic power.
"Buzz!"
In an instant, the emerald green cauldron appeared in front of Chen Beiwu, rapidly expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then spewing out streams of green light, forming an indestructible defensive barrier.
boom!
boom!
boom!
With a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator making a move, all of Zhai Cang and his seven companions' killing moves met with failure and returned empty-handed.
Only the hidden vein sand breath of the Qianjinqiu was the most sharp, easily breaking through the defensive barrier formed by the emerald cauldron, and attacking Chen Beiwu's face with undiminished momentum.
"Take care of them, Aji."
Chen Beiwu stood with his hands behind his back and spoke calmly.
Boom!
A sound like thunderous roar suddenly rang out, and Aji vanished from Chen Beiwu's shoulder in an instant.
"Roar!" (Don't break it!)
Golden Egg looked up and quickly reminded Aji with its divine sense.
"know."
Aji stepped into the void, and the whirlwind generated by his body easily shattered the hidden sand breath of Qian Jinqiu, causing a strong sense of crisis to rise in the hearts of Zhai Cang and the other seven.
Oh no, retreat immediately!
Zhai Cang urged his escape light to retreat rapidly, while simultaneously issuing a warning with his divine sense.
But in the face of absolute power, all resistance is like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
Xuan Tong, the Winter Hibernation instant is activated!
The wind stopped, the clouds ceased, and the world was sealed off. In Aji's eyes, the world suddenly transformed into a frozen painting.
Zhai Cang and the other seven stood motionless, their true essence almost completely stopped circulating. Even the most terrifying Qian Jin Qiu was unable to move.
Without hesitation, Aji stretched out its front paws and slapped at the five closest late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.
"Click."
As easily as slicing melons and vegetables, Aji merely patted with his front paw, and the protective true qi of the Nascent Soul True Lord collapsed, leaving him severely injured.
But only Aji could clearly see this scene. Even Lan Xinyi, whose cultivation had reached the half-step Nascent Soul stage, could only vaguely sense that something was wrong.
Soon, half a breath passed, and the Winter Hibernation Instantaneous Profound Transmission was released.
As the strongest among the seven, Zhai Cang grunted, feeling an irresistible and terrifying force surge through his chest. His body instantly transformed into a cannonball, crashing heavily to the ground and creating a deep crater.
If that were all, it wouldn't be so bad; such injuries wouldn't be enough to render a Nascent Soul True Monarch powerless.
But Zhai Cang was astonished to find that, for some reason, all the true qi in his body had lost its sensation, as if he had lost his golden core and become a mortal. Only a trace of divine sense remained, which was able to detect the miserable state of the other six fellow True Monarchs.
"Such speed! What kind of demon king is that?" Lan Xinyi was startled.
After she perfected the sect's signature technique, "The True Scripture of Ten Thousand Poisons Corroding the Dao and Returning to Immortality," and entered the half-step Nascent Soul realm, her strength was among the top in the nine realms of the Southern Wilderness. She could easily defeat a Nascent Soul Perfected True Monarch.
Even so, she still couldn't see clearly how the arrogant demon king defeated Zhai Cang and the others, the True Lord of the Sand Sea.
This means that if this demon king attacks her, her fate will most likely be the same as Zhai Cang's, with no power to resist.
"How could such a terrifying fourth-realm demon king exist in the Southern Wilderness now? And how could such a ferocious beast willingly submit to Chen Zi'ang?"
Lan Xinyi's mind raced with thoughts, but she couldn't figure it out.
"roar!"
Just then, the Hidden Golden Dragon let out a deafening dragon roar.
Lan Xinyi looked up and saw the noble-looking demon king extend its front claws, ignoring the powerful physical defense of the Fuyuan Dragon, and forcefully pierced through the latter's chest, pulling out a fist-sized ball of flesh.
But the fleshy ball was not like the heart of a dragon; it was more like a elixir of creation, dark gold in color and semi-transparent, with a faint shimmering light on its surface, radiating astonishing vitality.
Upon seeing Long Xin, the regret in Chen Beiwu's eyes deepened.
The cultivators of the Southern Wilderness truly don't know what's good for them.
Even with all its cultivation essence vanished and its bloodline almost completely drained, the dragon still retains such a powerful dragon heart, demonstrating just how extraordinary the bloodline of the Qianjin Qiu clan is.
"Gurgle."
Jin Dan swallowed hard, his gaze shifting back and forth between Chen Beiwu and Long Xin.
"for you."
Aji flashed and appeared beside the golden egg.
This dragon heart is indeed excellent, with effects comparable to a fifth-tier elixir for dragons, but it has little effect on Aji, whose cultivation has reached the perfect realm of a demon king.
Under the watchful gaze of the golden egg, Chen Beiwu put away his dragon heart and looked at the group of Nascent Soul True Monarchs from the Cangmo Sect who were unable to move inside the pit.
"Tell me, where did you hide the Jade King Serpent?"
"Cough cough."
Zhai Cang coughed up blood, his eyes filled with resentment as he looked at Chen Beiwu.
too strong!
No wonder the leader of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect chose Feng Jingyue as his superior.
Before Zhenwu Zhenjun, he was utterly defeated without even having the chance to unleash the fifth-tier Yuanlu left by his master.
"Kill me if you want; the cultivators of Cangmo have never been afraid of death."
Zhai Cang spoke with difficulty, his voice broken and barely audible.
He had failed his master's trust and was unable to protect the remaining blood essence in the heart of the Fuyuan Dragon. He was already resigned to death.
"Wait, I am willing to surrender and bring the cultivators of the Cangmo Sect to join the Jingyue Sect." The deputy sect master of Cangmo quickly spoke up.
Senior Brother Zhai is not afraid of death, but he hasn't lived enough and doesn't want to be buried with the Cangmo Sect.
"you!"
Zhai Cang raised his hand and pointed at the deputy sect leader Shi Jin, his face grim, but he no longer had the strength to speak and stop him.
Chen Beiwu glanced at Xue Le, and the little guy immediately used the Five Transformations Technique to heal Shi Jin's injuries, allowing him to continue speaking.
"The Azure Ridge King Serpent is dead; it was eaten by the Azure Desert Guardian Dragon."
Shi Jin looked at Chen Beiwu with awe, daring not to hide anything.
Lan Xinyi pursed her lips. She had expected this outcome, but she was still somewhat unwilling.
"Sect Leader Chen, what are your plans for dealing with the Cangmo Sect?" Lan Xinyi asked.
"This matter is not urgent. The dragon's bloodline is strong, and it has devoured the Azure Ridge King Serpent. How could its bloodline be depleted and so weak?" Chen Beiwu said bluntly.
"The essence of the Fuyuan dragon was taken by our sect's ancestor, True Lord Huanglong, hence its bloodline is depleted and its combat power is less than one-tenth of its peak," Shi Jin explained.
"True Lord Huanglong? He's still alive?" Lan Xinyi raised an eyebrow, quite surprised.
Huanglong Zhenjun was infamous for his ferocity, and like her master, he was a Nascent Soul True Lord from the previous era.
As early as 1,300 years ago, news spread in the Xuan Yan Realm that True Monarch Huanglong had passed away. The Cangmo Sect's decision to shrink its power and no longer participate in the struggles of the Xuan Yan Realm also confirmed the news to all the major cultivation forces, confirming that True Monarch Huanglong had indeed perished.
But now it seems that this is most likely a false message deliberately released by the higher-ups of the Cangmo Sect.
Thinking of this, Lan Xinyi turned to Chen Beiwu and introduced him, "True Lord Huanglong is the thirty-seventh generation patriarch of the Cangmo Sect. He has been cultivating for about four thousand years. If he is still alive, he is probably planning to attain the Dao and become a deity."
"Where is True Lord Huanglong?" Chen Beiwu put away the storage rings of Zhai Cang and the others.
"I don't know." Shi Jin shook his head, turned his gaze to the sect leader Zhai Cang, and guessed, "Our ancestor has always been cautious in his actions, and is most likely hiding deep within the core of the Nine Evolutions Yellow Sand Heaven-Covering Array."
The Nine-Evolution Yellow Sand Sky-Covering Array is a renowned fifth-order elemental array of the sect, possessing unparalleled power.
Even though the world has changed drastically and the Dao of Creation is incomplete, causing the power of the fifth-order Yuan Array within the Xuan Yan territory to decline, the Nine Transformations Yellow Sand Sky-Covering Array is still an excellent secluded cultivation place that can block the exploration of Nascent Soul True Monarchs.
Zhai Cang remained silent, simply closing his eyes and refusing to cooperate.
Upon seeing this, the golden egg understood and took the initiative to use the Great Evolution True Mystery.
With its level of cultivation, it was impossible for it to control a Nascent Soul Perfected True Monarch with illusions for an extended period of time.
But things are different now. Zhai Cang's divine sense is weak and he has been severely injured. He has no chance of resisting its Great Evolution True Reality.
Soon, Zhai Cang's expression changed slightly, but then returned to normal.
Deep within the Mitian Cave.
A handsome young cultivator sat cross-legged on a futon, his body enveloped in an earthy yellow glow.
These rays of light were condensed from the essence of the Earth element, and as they flowed, they exuded immense power. A faint image of a yellow dragon with its eyes slightly closed, seemingly asleep, could be seen, resonating with the entire cave's grand formation.
Suddenly, a slight fluctuation came from the restrictions outside the cave.
"What is it?"
Huanglong Zhenjun frowned slightly, instinctively sensing something was amiss.
-
Before he went into seclusion, he reminded his disciples that they should not disturb him unless it concerned the life or death of the sect.
"A powerful enemy has invaded, and I am powerless to protect the sect. I can only retreat into the Mitian Cave to protect the Ancestor," Zhai Cang said urgently.
"Oh, which powerful enemy is it that makes you so wary and fearful, my disciple?" True Monarch Huanglong opened his eyes, his tone indifferent.
"I hereby inform the Ancestor that the ones who have invaded the sect are True Martial Lord, the Sect Master of Mirror Moon Sect, and Fairy Ten Thousand Poisons Sect Master."
Zhai Cang's voice was filled with unconcealed sorrow: "If it weren't for Junior Brother Shi risking his life to save me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have survived. I had to report the news to the Ancestor."
"Buzz!"
The cave gate opened, and True Monarch Huanglong raised his eyes to look at Zhai Cang, who was walking into the cave, his expression unchanged.
In the next instant, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within the cave suddenly converged, transforming into two ferocious yellow dragon phantoms, one on the left and one on the right, biting at the void behind Zhai Cang.
Knowing he had been discovered, Chen Beiwu no longer concealed his whereabouts. With a surge of primordial true qi within his body, the Azure Myriad Spirits Wall manifested before him to defend against the attacking phantom of the yellow dragon.
boom!
Upon colliding head-on with a single move, Chen Beiwu's eyes narrowed slightly.
Although Huanglong Zhenjun's attack failed to break through the Qinghua Wanling Wall defense, the Huanglong Zhenyi, which was so effortless, was extremely special. It was vivid, full of spiritual charm, and its power was equivalent to the full-force attack of a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator. It should not be underestimated.
As expected, the old immortal who can live to this day with the name Huanglong and break the lifespan limit is no ordinary person!
"How dare you two juniors trespass into my Mitian Cave!"
Despite his outward disdain, Huanglong Zhenjun secretly changed his hand seals beneath his sleeves, activating the array flags of the "Nine Transformations Yellow Sand Heaven-Covering Array".
Rumble!
In an instant, the cave gate closed, and the Wutu Heavenly Sand hidden deep within the Mitian Cave surged back like a tsunami, rushing out wildly from the depths of the earth's veins, forming ninety-nine divine yellow dragons, turning this world into a yellow sand inferno.
The moment the purgatory was formed, the space inside the Mitian Cave distorted, emitting a forbidden power powerful enough to make even a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator tremble.
Faced with such a binding force, an ordinary Nascent Soul Perfection True Monarch would probably be crushed into dust within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
"The ambush failed. We can't fight head-on. We must leave Mitian Cave immediately!" Lan Xinyi warned telepathically.
The Nine-Evolution Yellow Sand Sky-Covering Array is no ordinary fifth-order array, especially since it is presided over by a top expert.
The reason why Hengsha Zhenjun couldn't stop Chen Ziang before was simply because his cultivation level was average. Even with the help of his fellow Dao soldiers, he couldn't unleash much of the power of the fifth-order Yuan Formation.
With the power of the Mitian Cave's earth veins, Huanglong Zhenjun could unleash almost 30% of the power of the Nine Transformations Yellow Sand Mitian Grand Array.
Don't underestimate this 30% power. Although a half-step Nascent Soul cultivator is strong, he has not truly stepped into the Nascent Soul realm and created a Dharma Image World. He is no match for this fifth-order great formation!
"Escape? Do you think you can escape?"
Huanglong Zhenjun, holding the array flag, spoke calmly.
Unless a true Nascent Soul cultivator is born, he is an invincible being within the Mitian Cave.
